Kascheck

Kascheck is a skill for Claude Code from kastheco/claude-plugins. It costs 71 tokens per session (2,704 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A production-readiness audit for software projects, especially projects generated quickly with AI. It checks security, code quality, infrastructure, and testing, then reports findings by severity and repair effort.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run a project audit and get checklist results, prioritized issues, file-level details when requested, and estimates such as quick fix or significant refactor.
Why use it?
It turns a broad project review into a structured list of risks and missing safeguards. A monorepo, meaning one repository containing multiple applications or services, can be examined as part of the project discovery.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

Kascheck scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Kascheck

Analyze projects (especially vibe-coded/AI-generated) to assess production readiness and identify required remediation work.

Slash Command

/kascheck:audit [path] [--detailed]

  • path: Local directory path to analyze (defaults to current directory)
  • --detailed: Include specific file paths, code examples, and remediation steps

Output Format

The audit produces a comprehensive report with three views:

  1. Checklist View: Pass/Warn/Fail for each category
  2. Priority View: Critical/High/Medium/Low issues with remediation
  3. Effort View: Quick fix / Moderate / Significant refactor categorization

Audit Process

Phase 1: Discovery (Subagent)

Spawn an Explore agent to understand the project:

Task("Kascheck: Discover project structure

Analyze this project to understand:
1. Technology stack (languages, frameworks, databases)
2. Project structure (monorepo, single app, microservices)
3. Entry points (main files, routers, handlers)
4. Configuration files present
5. Test file locations
6. Documentation files

Return a structured summary including:
- Primary language(s) and framework(s)
- Architecture pattern detected
- Key directories and their purposes
- Configuration files found
- Test coverage presence

Path: {target_path}", subagent_type="Explore")

Phase 2: Security Audit (Subagent)

Task("Kascheck: Security assessment

- [ ] JWT implementation secure (proper signing, expiration, refresh)

**Input Validation:**
- [ ] Request validation on all endpoints
- [ ] SQL injection prevention (parameterized queries/ORM)
- [ ] XSS prevention (output encoding, CSP headers)
- [ ] File upload validation (type, size, content)

**Secrets Management:**
- [ ] No hardcoded secrets in code
- [ ] Environment variables for configuration
- [ ] .env files in .gitignore

**API Security:**
- [ ] CORS properly configured (not wildcard in production)
- [ ] Rate limiting implemented
- [ ] Security headers present (HSTS, X-Frame-Options, etc.)
- [ ] HTTPS enforced

**OWASP Top 10 2025 Check:**
- [ ] A01: Broken Access Control
- [ ] A02: Security Misconfiguration
- [ ] A03: Software Supply Chain Failures

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
